- Update readme, changelog, cargo version number in preparation for release
- Remove panicking behavior on recursive callback calls, add additional error
variant for recursive callback errors.
- auto formatting
- add gc control to ffi
- add gc_guard to util functions
- use gc_guard to make util error handling functions never trigger __gc
metamethod Lua errors even without __gc metatable wrapper
- sort of a technicality, don't call luaL_requiref outside of the Lua
constructor, as it could trigger the garbage collector when user code has had
a chance to set __gc metamethods. Changes the API to load the debug table.
First, make sure that `add_methods` cannot trigger another userdata registry
insert, causing an unintended panic. Second, remove `RefCell` surrounding
userdata hashmap, as this change makes it no longer needed. Third, add a
`RefCell` around `Callback` because FnMut means that callbacks cannot recurse
into themselves, and panic appropriately when this happens. This should
eventually be turned into an error.
CallbackError now, instead of displaying the cause description, instead prints
"callback error: <traceback>". Since the cause is already in the cause chain of
the error, this avoids repeatedly printing the cause of callback errors along
the chain, and also actually prints the callback when using Display on each
error in the chain.
The stock Lua interpreter doesn't do this either. AFAIK the "base" library is supposed to be loaded into "_G" only as it contains functions like `assert` and `error`.
This cannot be accomplished without using unsafe code, which justifies this addition in my opinion.
Also changes "null" to "nul" to be in sync with `std::ffi` docs. Naming is derived from `CStr::to_bytes_with_nul`, using `as_*` instead of `to_*` since this isn't doing any computation.
